4. It's difficult, and I understand how you feel.

All of our parents are gone now. So are some friends.

And I can still picture everyone at the reception...their laughs, their good wishes, their warmth.

What you need to do is to hold on to those memories. Because they are the one thing that death and loss cannot take away from you...the memories. They re most important.

And with the memories...it's almost like they are still here with you.

Their energy is still here. Their energy helped form your life, who you are today. So in that sense, they live on.
